As you can see in the pictures I purchased a 24 inch by 80 inch flush door. I ended up getting it at Home Depot after Lowes didn&#8217;t have ANY 24 inch in stock. No problem, they are close to each other.<\/p>\n<p>It cost $24.00 and with tax it ended up two cents shy of $26.00. That&#8217;s not a bad investment for a flat place to build a large model boat.<\/p>\n<p>The floor clerk cut 20\u201d off the door. He volunteered to do it for me after I told him I was building a large model boat. I said, &#8220;That would be great as you&#8217;ll do a straighter cut with your panel saw than I could do at home.&#8221;\u00a0 Also the door in two pieces would fit into my VW GTI much easier. It probably took him less than two minutes to safely make the single cut.<\/p>\n<p>Now I have two flat surface building boards. The large one is 60 inches by 24 inches and the smaller board is 20 inches by 24 inches. I won&#8217;t count the saw kerf as missing OAL.<\/p>\n<p>As you can see I made and glued in new end supports in both door pieces. I had to dig the mighty Powermatic out of its hiding place to do the sawing. The thickness of the end wood is 1 and 1\/8 inch. The insert width can be anything. The large piece I was able to make 1 and 1\/4 inch wide. The small piece I could only scrounge up a 3\/4 inch piece. Both will do the job just fine. Overall length of both pieces was 22 and 1\/4 inches. That makes the stock wood sides only 7\/8 deep each.<\/p>\n<p>That material seen inside the door shell is just cardboard. With the sharp wood chisel seen in the photo it took all of 3 minutes to prepare space for the new end wood piece. For the primeval forest tree huggers, that is not real Lauan wood. It is a pressed fiber like paper with somehow receiving a super thin coating on the outside to make it look like wood. I am sure it is an ecologically sound material.<\/p>\n<p>I choose Type III Titebond glue but I do have an equal amount of Type II here in the shop. Either would work fine. I coated both surfaces before making the joint. Now I am pealing Titebond skin off my fingers just like my model airplane days (or woodworking).<\/p>\n<p>Oh and as usual, one can&#8217;t have enough clamps on hand.<\/p>\n<p>A once over with the sandpaper block and the door\/boards look like they were always that short. I am thinking I should give the building boards a coat of urethane just as a moisture (humidity) protection. Then on with the project build.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I now have my building board. As you can see in the pictures I purchased a 24 inch by 80 inch flush door.
